Daddy's Lap Dog

 Good morning,

Sweet little Lily isn't so little anymore.

She does have a favorite lap.  :)

Darling!

All the best,

Kjell's Lamb Dinner

 Good morning,

After many cruise images, here's an image from home!  Kjell made a delicious lamb dinner.  

He cut a lamb leg into serving-size pieces, then grilled it and served with mint jelly, grilled peppers, and salad.

What a marvelous summer meal!

Enjoy,

Morgan Car on the Royal Promenade

 Good morning,

This Morgan is parked in front of the wine bar on the Royal Promenade aboard Independence of the Seas.

Notice the driver and friend are giant teddy bears.  Cute.  But, there is a practical reason for them.  They are to discourage guests from getting into the car to take pictures.  Good plan.

Enjoy!

Independence of the Seas Culinary Staff

 Good morning,

During each cruise the culinary staff appears in the main dining room where guests can thank them for the marvelous meals they prepare.  Of course, they are met with resounding applause.

Ah, yes, cruise ship fun!

Enjoy,

Lois

Nesting Seagulls

 Good morning,

As Independence of the Seas was pulling out of Halifax, NS, our friend Erica was able to capture this image of nesting seagulls on the top of a building.

How very sweet!  What a perfectly placed patch of green for their nest.

All the best,

Lois

Serenading Piper

 Good morning,

This piper was serenading passengers aboard Independence of the Seas in Halifax, Nova Scotia.   

It's always fun to see what is happening on the dockside at the various ports.  This was just lovely!

Enjoy!

Towel Critter

 Good morning,

We're not sure what critter this is, but it is some sort of sweet mommy with her baby.

Towel critters have become such an important part of cruising.  I remember when the first simple ones began to appear more than thirty years ago.  They've now become a fun tradition.

Enjoy,

Lois
